Opening on 1st March in The Whiteley redevelopment in Bayswater, Six Senses London is the brand’s first UK property. Close to Hyde Park and Notting Hill, the 109-room hotel promises to bring Six Senses’ signature slower rhythm to the capital. At its core is the expansive Six Senses Spa, complete with biohacking facilities, treatment rooms and an indoor swimming pool. Whiteley’s Kitchen, Bar & Café will champion maverick British cuisine, farmhouse bakes and creative cocktails, while the Earth Lab and Alchemy Bar underscore the brand’s sustainability focus. The hotel will also introduce the first ever Six Senses Place, a members-style space blending dining, movement and cultural programming.

Osteria Vibrato is the new restaurant from the Laughing Heart’s Charlie Mellor. He’s teamed up with ex-Luca sommelier to create this celebration of regional Italian cooking. In the kitchen, Gaia Enria (Burro e Salvia) and head chef Louis Lingwood (Toklas; Quo Vadis) have collaborated on a menu that spans Italy from Liguria to Valle d’Aosta. Look for smaller plates such as bagna cauda crostino and Albese-style raw beef, while fresh pasta is rolled daily for classics like tagliatelle with ragù and mezze maniche alla gricia. Interior touches, which include Murano chandeliers, terrazzo floors and candlelight, lend the space a romantic, old-school warmth.

Rimowa has added Titanium to its Classic collection. The colourway is a permanent addition across the German brand’s Cabin, Check-In L and Trunk sizes. A warm aluminium shade with a soft satin finish that subtly shifts in the light, Titanium’s clean lines and polished details will gradually acquire a patina that speaks to travels past. Each piece includes a leather address tag that can be personalised with initials, and there are other colourful accents to choose from, including handles and wheels.
